|
|
Fàill ill o agus ho ro èile
|
Faill ill o agus ho ro eile
|
|
Fàill ill o agus ho ro èile
|
Faill ill o agus ho ro eile
|
|
Fàill ill o agus ho ro èile
|
Faill ill o agus ho ro eile
|
|
A fhleasgaich dhuinn nach ann duinn a dh'èirich
|
Brown-haired youth, what a thing befell us
|
|
|
|
|
Saoil sibh fhèin nach mi bha truagh dheth
|
Do you think that I was a poor soul
|
|
Feasgar foghair air achadh bhuana
|
On an autumn evening in the harvest field?
|
|
A h-uile tè 's a fear fhèin ri guallainn
|
Every woman with her man at her shoulder
|
|
'S mo leannan donn-sa air bhàrr nan cuantan
|
And my brown-haired love on the ocean
|
|
|
|
|
Shiùibhlinn, shiùibhlinn, shiùibhlinn fhèin leat
|
I would travel, travel, travel with you
|
|
Shiùibhlinn fada troimh choill nan geug leat
|
I would travel far through the woods with you
|
|
'S nuair bha mi òg mi air bheagan cèille
|
When I was young and had little sense
|
|
Gur e do ghaol-sa a rinn mo lèireadh
|
It was your love that wounded me
|
|
|
|
|
Gheall mo mhàthair fàinne òir dhomh
|
My mother promised me a gold ring
|
|
Gheall m'athair buaile bhò dhomh
|
My father promised me a fold of cattle
|
|
'S ged gheibhinn siud is an saoghal mòr leis
|
Though I'd get that and the whole world with it
|
|
Is mòr gum b'annsa leam gaol an òigeir
|
I would far rather have the young man's love
|
|
|
|
|
Fàill ill o agus ho ro èile
|
Faill ill o agus ho ro eile
|
|
Fàill ill o agus ho ro èile
|
Faill ill o agus ho ro eile
|
|
Fàill ill o agus ho ro èile
|
Faill ill o agus ho ro eile
|
|
A fhleasgaich dhuinn nach ann duinn a dh'èirich
|
Brown-haired youth, what a thing befell us
|
